baltimore
WA OHIO will be swallowed by the Rlch-
anu aS ST Ierm,nal speedily. Alfred Sully's
Mvesen contract, he says, expired week
4 liant President Garrett sent two OF
%s ~ hrsiness associates over here to see
A. snllv last Sunday, and give "a verbal
-ioagev thar the terms of that contract

snIlv chose TO exercise the powers granted
NV il. big people interested In Rich
uond Terminal are behind Mr.. Suily
iii ;, according to this authority, land
avnect 70 see him soon successful enough
N make an official announcement that
mo Baltimore and Ohio control has been
hongbt outright. You can depend on
1 this as certain"
"Nr Sully has been deserted by all the
Richmond Terminal crowd" averred an
4 otber distinguished fnancier. 'They are
At odds with him. They not only want
i M mart in the talked-Of deal themselves,
Snt they are determined that mob dy else
,bar have. so tar as Sully is concerned.
j And what's more, Sully will be driven
from the Richmond Terminal Presidency,
/ Depend on this"
This was yet another and different
/ financial power: "Sully has made COM
psct with Sage and Gould. They are to
give him all the money he needs. His
contract runs indefinitely. Whenever he
produces the price he gets the road. This
Is what you can depend Oh."
Per contra: ave and 1--WE" means
/ Russell Sage and Jay Could have made
no agreement whatever with Mr.. Sully or
ANYBODY else for one penny's worth of in
terest in the Baltimore and Ohio Com
psny. Yes, Mr. Sully has talked with us,
but we've no faith in the property; it may
be worth 80, but only crazy man could
think Of paying 200 Tor it. Now just de-
pend on this"
And one more: "Sully's option runs
out tomorrow, and he will be out of the
whole business then for good and all.
Henry 5. Ives, g. s. Staynor, and two or
three milllonaires who are associated
with them will then exercise powers I'M
der later contract, which Mr.. Garrett
signed 10 Baltimore last week, to become
/ operative tomorrow on Sully's failure to
connect. Depend on that"
One man who believes in young Mr..
Ives, and is sorry that the Stock Ex-
change Governors don't, says this with
some spirit: "We have already put up
our money. 1t is right under Mr.. Gar
rett's bands. We've got this bargain
sure, and by the end Of this week we will
be able to make an official statement
Depend ont"
"sully's option expired last wedpes-
day; this is right from the inside. You
may depend on it."
THE sully option expires tomorrow.
Depend on this.''
MT. sully has contract that runs for
tw0 weeks yet. Depend on what 1 am
"Ar. sully has got three months to get
we money. That can be depended on"
on that" A"

UHIy they all know it differently,
bgt there are things that OF all this
